10 All the land shall be turned into a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem. [a]Jerusalem shall be raised up and (A)inhabited in her place from Benjamin’s Gate to the place of the First Gate and the Corner Gate, (B)and from the Tower of Hananel to the king’s winepresses.

11 The people shall dwell in it;
And (C)no longer shall there be utter destruction,
(D)But Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited.

12 And this shall be the plague with which the Lord will strike all the people who fought against Jerusalem:

Their flesh shall [b]dissolve while they stand on their feet,
Their eyes shall dissolve in their sockets,
And their tongues shall dissolve in their mouths.
